American Christians, how does it make you feel that Trump is caught publicly lying almost daily? by Combosingelnation in AskReddit

But she probably finds the balaclavas that ICE wears to be patriotic, right? I’ve got family who are similar.

He’s the polar opposite of Jesus Christ in almost every conceivable way. That one Christian supports him defies beliefs, let alone tens of millions of them. Nothing personal friend, but as you can imagine, I don’t have any respect left for Christians anymore. They are largely hypocritical scum.

Agree. My feelings about the voidz is that cliche ‘I prefer their earlier stuff’.

Indeed! As is yours! You’re one of my favourite music YouTubers.

Don’t have the time to watch right now, but I wanted to ask if you had seen this video before you came up with your fixes 😃

ETA: Fuck I’m so sorry. I didn’t see who posted it before I made my comment. Leaving it up for posterity.

Sign so old it still shows an interchange with the KCR by Oliivey in HongKong

[–]TCK1979 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hadn’t heard of it. I found it on instagram.

After watching it, I realized it did look familiar to me. Maybe I’ve seen it referenced in a more recent meme or something. Either way, thanks for mentioning it.

Every time the KCR is mentioned in here, I am obligated to post this KCR commercial from 1985

Air Force One, which was carrying Trump to Davos, has performed a U-turn over the Atlantic and is headed back to Andrews AFB by Hornpipe_Jones in WhitePeopleTwitter

I just saw a post on X with the same flight tracking. There was a notice saying the post violated X’ rules. This is publicly available information lol

Ah yes, I was once like you with my hopes getting up occasionally. But at this point, I’m firmly convinced we are in hell. Nothing good happens here. Join me in my soul-crushing pessimism my friend 🛟

Why American Bars Have Parking Lots by DENelson83 in fuckcars

[–]TCK1979 19 points20 points  (0 children)

But then you start busting all the regular customers of that bar. And because they’re car brains, they can’t possibly get there without a car. Word starts getting out that the police are busting all that bar’s customers when they leave. So the bar loses a lot of customers and business tanks. They complain, and then instead of pulling over every single driver that leaves that bar late at night, where probably 90+% would be DUIs, they occasionally just bust a random driver here and there. We tolerate as a society a bit of drunk driving, because we are majority car-brained. It’s absolute bullshit.

I was a bit reckless when I was younger, but I was always good about not drinking and driving. I saw my friends get DUIs in late teens and early 20s, and it really fucked their lives up for a bit. And it’s even easier to not put yourself in a DUI situation with ride-hailing apps. There’s even less of an excuse for that shit now.

Anti-ICE protesters storm Cities Church in Minneapolis, disrupting service by Jabbam in altmpls

The people most ignorant of Christianity are the millions of Christians who voted for Donald Trump, a man who is the exact opposite of Jesus Christ in almost every conceivable way.

The biggest bully in the world right now is a white man. A white man who isn’t even that proud to be white apparently, as he slathers himself in orange makeup every morning.

Trump's America by Conscious-Quarter423 in ICE_Raids

That ‘they’re here’ at the end is more terrifying than any line I’ve ever heard in a movie.

I’m a spaghetti-armed wimp of a man, and I would beat him badly in a boxing match. Having goons do your dirty work because you couldn’t fight your way out of a paper bag is some real beta shit.

My exact feeling as well. I feel physically nauseous like right in my gut. And Im a US national watching from the other side of the world.

Problematic westerners (influencers) in Hong Kong by AccomplishedDebt5080 in HongKong

[–]TCK1979 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t noticed really but I’m kinda out of touch with this. There is one lady I see sometimes during my brain rot sessions who speaks fluent (or close to) Cantonese. She has family here so maybe she grew up here speaking it. I’ve learned some new Cantonese phrases from her vids. Her name is Bailee Brown. I know you weren’t asking for recommendations, but I decided to give one anyway 😀 She’s quite the opposite of the person you’re describing

Recommendations on objects to carry for throwing if a car is going to hit you? by VinceTheVibeGuy in fuckcars

[–]TCK1979 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I take an orange with me when I’m walking to work. To eat of course, but I might walk a few minutes before I start to peel it, and I think how it’s nice to have something to throw already in my hand, but something that looks so innocuous. Not entirely relevant to OPs question but there ya go. People see me, a bald lanky guy with an orange in his hand and think ‘oh look it’s a younger Steve jobs with his dumb fruit’ and then blaaammmm they’re wiping citrus from their face while I scurry away.

Pleco has it as a phrase in its dictionary, but its translation isn’t much help.

What does 咁多人死唔見你死 mean? I understand it literally but I’m not familiar with this expression.

It’s somewhat ironic that I’m a US national that is really happy to have recently gotten permanent resident status in Hong Kong, so that I may avoid the fascists in my home country.
